My least favorite thing about my skin it’s acne! If something new comes out to the market targeted for acne, bet that I will try it.

Salicylic Acid and Benzoyl Peroxide are two of the major over the counter approved ingredients for treating acne effectively, the Clean and Clear Advantage Acne control kit has it both in the kit and let me tell you, It’s a great combination. WP_000674

This is not like every acne control kit that has a soap, toner and moisturizer. This doesn’t has a toner and instead you get a Spot Treatment, I found this a little odd when I first got it, but I went ahead and used it. With the first few applications, my skin felt very clean and soft; they claim to “give you a clearer skin in as little as ! day of use” That wasn’t for me totally true, but I did find that my pimples were becoming a little smaller and more “cured” If I may call it like that.

I’ve been using the kit for a little over 4 months now, and I can totally feel the difference, I don’t miss wearing a toner anymore, and my acne it’s controlled but I still have the occasional or hormonal pimple, that I fight with the Spot Treatment, Just for as an update I still have acne dark spots, but it’s getting better and better as the time pass.

Now that you’ve read my overall thoughts on the Kit let me go a little more in-depth with each one of them.

Acne Control Cleanser

This product conta WP_000675 ins as Active component: Benzoyl Peroxide Acne (10%), Benzoyl Peroxide usually comes 1%, 2% & 5% of strength, so this particular product it’s really strong and it’s supposed to work faster; this was also designed to remain on your skin and keep working after you wash it off and go on with your day.

If you have very sensitive skin, you will dry up; I have combination to dry skin now and when I use this, the side of my cheeks tents to get really dry, and sometimes may peel a little, but it’s not really bad I just make sure to put extra moisture on the sensitive areas. Also your skin get a little more vulnerable to the sunlight when you start using this product, and the use of sunscreen is recommended.

Love it or Hate it?! I Do love this product it has been working wonders on my skin, it helped keeping away acne from my face, and getting rid of the pimple I already had. So this is a total love!

Salicylic Acid Acne Medication Moisturizer

The Active Ingredient for this product is Salicylic Acid, This it actually can penetrate into the pore to dissolve dead skin cell build up and encourages the shedding of the top layer of skin which prevents the pores from becoming congested. This makes it perfect for fighting acne easier; I actually think that this is nor moisturizing enough and if you have really dry skin this may not suit you well, you might have to reapply it thought the day or put on a second layer of it before applying your makeup.

Love it or hate it?! NONE! I like the product because it has a lot of benefits if you use it daily, but as I mentioned before, it’s not moisturizing enough for me and after I wash my face my skin it’s so dry and I have to reapply a 2nd layer and if you are in a rush at morning it can be a little annoying. Aside of that I like the product a lot.

Fast Acting Spot Treatment

At first I really hated it, because I thought I wasn’t doing anything for me, but now as the time passed, I’ve been using up the products and my skin has gotten a lot better; Now if a get a new pimple, I apply it on top and it does wonders for me, it diminishes the size of the pimple and it helps it get less red and better. I found that it’s better if you apply it after you moisturized instead of before moisturizer, that’s just my personal preference.

Love it Or Hate it?! Love It! a big miracle in a tiny tube.
